Circus Museum / Museo del Circo

Sponsor by

This week I want to share with you my visit to a very fun
and different museum; The Ringling Circus Museum in Sarasota, Florida.

The Circus Museum was established in 1948 by The Ringling’s
first Director, Chick Austin and it was the first museum in the country to document
the rich history of the American circus.

This special museum features banners, costumes, wagons and “The
Wisconsin”, the private railcar on which John and Mable Ringling traveled
around the country on business with the circus.

With the world’s largest miniature circus, housed at the
Tibbals Learning Center and a giant mural titles The Greatest Show on Earth,
this section of the Circus museum welcome visitors of all ages to a colorful
visit. Lastly, a hands-on interactive room and a timeline second floor give the
extra fun and history that only the Circus Museum can showcase.

Under this lines a video of our visit to The Ringling’s
Circus Museum in Sarasota, Florida. Enjoy!
